Insofar as there is no single software capable of covering all the fields mentioned above, it is essential to be able to interface the selected software according to their complementarities. There are two main forms of interfacing.

• Code export

  This involves exporting code from software A to software B, with the latter's solver solving the complete system.

  Example

  "Sfunction" exported from AMESim ^® into SIMULINK ^® .

  Since software does not use the same model description language, adaptations (interfaces) have to be developed from software to software. It's easy to see why it's important to have a common...
